I have been providing cat sitting services in Toronto since 2009. Since graduating from the Veterinary Technician program at Seneca in 2012, I am also able to provide other more specilaized services, including cat grooming, and administrating medication in the client's home. My associates all have relevant education, training, and experience. We specialize in taking care of special needs cats and handling uncooperative cats. Your cat's condition must have been diagnosed by a veterinarian and all medications must have been prescribed by a veterinarian.

We strive to enhance the human-pet bond by demonstrating medicating techniques that work specifically for your cat and how to effectively monitor your cat's condition so you can take care of your cat with confidence. When you are away, we can take care of your pets so you can have the peace of mind that they are getting the best care possible. We set affordable rates as we believe quality care should be accessible to everyone.

• As the owner, I meet with each client and visit all the cats so I get to know the cats personally, the best way to handle them, and their specific conditions
• I am the primary care giver of all the cats and my associates help me accommodate clients during very busy times and they are my back up if I cannot make it to a visit for some reason
